Douluo: What If Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang Ended Up Together?

Chapter 14: Chapter 14: A New Subversion Reward



"Your Holiness, the great and esteemed deity."

"Is this truly the land of divine providence that was revealed to you?"

"But aside from the dense white mist, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special here!"

After Dugu Bo fully submitted and swore his allegiance, a tall and burly man clad in luxurious, heavy golden armor spoke.

He had a rugged and imposing face, with a thick mane of golden hair and a scar over his left eye. This was Lion Douluo, and he couldn't help but frown as he asked his question.

"Uncle Lion, don't worry!"

"The land of divine providence is just ahead. Follow me, and you'll understand soon enough!"

Qian Xunji turned toward Ling Yuan and the three worshippers. With a light chuckle, he strode toward the center of the valley.

'Deity? Divine revelation? Land of divine providence?'

At the side, Dugu Bo was momentarily stunned, not fully comprehending the meaning of these terms.

As Qian Xunji passed through the thick white mist, the faint yet dazzling glow of ice-blue and fiery-red light became more pronounced.

Soon, as he drew closer, his vision suddenly opened up.

Before him lay an extremely peculiar pool. It was divided into two halves—one ice-blue, the other fiery-red—twisting together like the Yin-Yang symbol of ice and fire. One side exuded an intense chill, while the other radiated scorching heat.

The surrounding white mist was formed from the collision of these extreme temperatures.

Around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, numerous extraordinary and exotic herbs grew. Many of them were clearly rare and precious medicinal plants found only in the outside world!

For example, there was a variant of Cordyceps known as Snow Silkworm, a variant of ginseng called White Jade Ginseng, and a special strain of Ganoderma known as Purple Spirit Ganoderma, among others.

However, compared to these rare medicinal plants, Qian Xunji's gaze was fixed on the truly unparalleled immortal herbs that had appeared in the original story.

There was the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, the Blazing Delicate Apricot, the Lovesick Heartbroken Red, the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, the Delicate Fragrant Tulip, the Radiant Delicate Immortal, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and many more.

At that moment, a cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind.

-Ding!

[The system has detected that the host has replaced Tang San and obtained the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well from Dugu Bo ahead of time.]

[This action has subverted the original plot and has significantly altered the future trajectory of Douluo Continent!]

[Congratulations, host! You have received the following rewards:

Secret Art: Holy Sun Fire, and Divine Artifact: The Wordless Alchemy Codex!]

As soon as the notification ended, a surge of information flooded into Qian Xunji's mind.

It detailed the cultivation method of the Holy Sun Fire and the functions of the Wordless Alchemy Codex.

After fully processing the new knowledge, Qian Xunji couldn't help but feel delighted.

The Holy Sun Fire was an advanced technique that complemented the cultivation method, Holy Sun Scorching Day. It allowed one's Holy Sun soul power to transform into divine, explosive flames of immense destructive power.

Moreover, it could also be used for alchemy!

That's right—alchemy.

The Holy Sun Fire was actually designed to work in tandem with the Wordless Alchemy Codex for refining pills.

The function of the Wordless Alchemy Codex was to analyze and collect data on medicinal materials.

As long as one specified the desired medicinal effects of a pill, the codex could automatically deduce an appropriate pill formula.

This was simply perfect!

Qian Xunji had already reviewed the immortal herb records provided by Yue Guan in advance.

After surveying the surroundings of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he noticed that the immortal herbs growing here were not limited to those known from Douluo Dalu. There were many more!

But there was a problem.

For instance, the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, which could evolve the bloodline of fire-attributed avian martial souls, existed here—but there was only one.

And among those who needed it, aside from Azure Luan Douluo, there was also Ling Yuan.

If there was only one Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, then it obviously wouldn't be enough to share!

Now, with the Wordless Alchemy Codex, everything changed.

Through the alchemy formulas within the codex, he could refine two or three pills from a single immortal herb—each with effects surpassing that of the herb in its raw form!

Initially, Qian Xunji had planned to distribute suitable immortal herbs to the three worshippers after bringing them to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

But now, with the Wordless Alchemy Codex, it was clear that waiting to refine them into pills would yield far greater benefits.

"Your Holiness, esteemed elders, this is actually my personal medicine garden."

Upon arriving at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Dugu Bo noticed that Qian Xunji, the three worshippers, and Ling Yuan all seemed deeply shaken by the sight. Feeling a bit proud, he stepped forward respectfully, preparing to properly introduce his extraordinary medicinal garden.

"The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well… it truly is extraordinary."

However, before Dugu Bo could begin his explanation, Qian Xunji—his hands clasped behind his back, his sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes complementing his striking and refined features—smiled faintly and spoke with admiration.

"Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well…"

Dugu Bo was momentarily taken aback.

'Is that the name of this peculiar pool?'

"Your Holiness, is this water pool truly called the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well?"

At the side, Qingluan Douluo, having just recovered from the breathtaking spectacle of nature's craftsmanship, took a deep breath and turned to Qian Xunji with curiosity.

"That's right."

Qian Xunji nodded with a smile.

"According to the words of the great and towering deity, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is one of three great treasure troves formed naturally by the world."

"Due to the special environment here, the surrounding plants grow at ten times—no, even a hundred times—their usual speed."

"Furthermore, this place fosters the growth of natural treasures that are nearly impossible to find in the outside world."

"The rare herbs I told you about, the ones capable of evolving martial souls and drastically increasing cultivation—according to the medicinal records passed down in Yue Guan's family, these belong to the category of immortal herbs."

"In the outside world, such things exist only in legends."

"But here, beside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, I have already discovered dozens of them!"

Dozens of immortal herbs capable of evolving martial souls?!

Qian Xunji's words left the three worshippers, Ling Yuan, and Dugu Bo utterly astounded.

They all understood that the evolution of a martial soul was an opportunity spoken of only in myths!

And yet, here in this very place, there were dozens of immortal herbs capable of granting such a miracle!

What kind of heaven-defying fortune was this?!

"Your Holiness… What exactly do you mean by deity, divine revelation, and land of divine providence?"

"And among the three great treasure troves, aside from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, what are the other two?"

"Which of the herbs around here are considered immortal herbs?"

Finally, Dugu Bo couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

"Mr. Dugu, allow me to answer your first question!"

Before Qian Xunji could respond, Ling Yuan stepped forward with pride. Dressed in an elegant, tight-fitting black feather-shouldered dress, her tall and alluring figure was complemented by her breathtakingly exquisite features. Her beautiful lips curved slightly as she spoke with a sense of honor.

She recounted how Qian Xunji had earned the favor of a deity, received a divine revelation, and learned about this place.

Once again, Dugu Bo was shaken to the core.

'The Pope I just swore allegiance to… is truly this incredible?'

'He actually gained the recognition of a legendary deity!'

'It seems I, this old poison master, have made the right choice!'

As for Dugu Bo's second question, Qian Xunji felt a bit awkward.

Though he had played along with the grandiose act, he actually had no idea what the other two great treasure troves were!

That so-called Three Great Treasure Troves was only briefly mentioned by that Tang San.

There was no further explanation afterward.

Who even knows what the Three Great Treasure Troves actually are!

However, outwardly, Qian Xunji remained composed. He shook his head calmly and said,

"Apologies, but the great deity did not specify the three treasure troves."

"I was only informed about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."

Hearing this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"But as for these immortal herbs, I do have some knowledge about them."
